Importantly, this wouldn't have passed without Dem support. There was enough of a split within Republican ranks that if Dems had voted against the bill it would've been doa. Giving Trump a blank check to warmonger *and* passing an anti-trans measure was a choice.
115 Democrats just voted to codify the first federal trans segregation law.

People keep wondering why they're going after Venezuela. It's because they want to do regime change and control its oil, then use a big tract of land there to keep a tax free "network state" that looks like Dubai but operates like Rhodesia. They are saying this out loud! Believe them!

by far the most encouraging thing about the second Trump term has been the extent to which ordinary people, tasked with the execution of the very system of justice this administration wishes to corrupt, have said absolutely the fuck not

JUST IN: Assistant U.S. Attorney Jeffrey Snell just confirmed, at the prodding of U.S. Magistrate Judge Keri Holleb Hotaling, that this motion for dismissal followed a "no bill" from a grand jury.
That means the grand jury refused to indict.

U.S. prosecutors in Chicago are dropping another case tied to Operation Midway Blitz, "without prejudice."
It's USA v. Nathan Griffin. Below is the motion, followed by excerpts from the complaint.
The feds don't say why they're dropping it, but they had until today to secure an indictment.

So many people don't really get that these people are male supremacists who view love itself as degenerate. What they advocate for isn't a relation of mutual respect and dignity- it is to own those they consider their lessers as literal property, to be used and disposed of as they see fit.
I sort of wish y'all took this more seriously, because this attitude is a reinforcement of heterosexuality as a hierarchy. It's an acknowledgement and understanding that it's not enough to "be with" a woman, or even to father children.
They define manhood as exploitation, abuse, and dominance.

This level of explicit gutter racism from a public figure would have met overwhelming backlash even ten years ago and the fact that it's just another Tuesday now is breaking me a bit.
Trump: “Why do we take in people only from ‘shithole’ countries? Why can’t we take people from Norway, Sweden, Denmark. Send us some good people, please. But we always take people from Somalia… from places that are dirty, disgusting, criminal.”

The President's Affordability Tour begins with a central message: Cheer up. You can easily do without and enjoy it. And it teaches your entitled kids a healthy lesson. Also steel. That's a real need.
Trump: "You can give up certain products. You could give up pencils. Because under the China policy, every child can get 37 pencils. They only need 1 or 2. They don't need that many. You always need steel. You don't need 37 dolls for your daughter. 2 or 3 is nice. So we're doing things right."

I think the coded language most ignored is how the right uses “inefficiency” to mean “things not yet being profit maximized by private equity” rather than “running smoothly with minimal waste”

It’s very funny to me that countries are trying to pass laws banning teens from social media until they’re older and can “handle it” as if the last decade hasn’t been about watching rich middle aged men nuke their brains on Twitter and then run the USA via shitpost.
Dude. Yes. Alito and Thomas are of course the standout examples, but all of the Republican justices have tells in their writing and their questioning indicating that they are, to varying degrees, marinating their brains in dumb bitch juice
My theory, fwiw, is that Supreme Court Justices are not immune to Twitter brain poisoning. I suspect all six have horrific information environments and have therefore lost the ability to understand the people who don't agree with them.

This is the part of vaccine hesitancy that gets me. "I had a sore arm for five hours" is just not a big problem vs the certainly of misery when contracting COVID or shingles. I don't understand how people can fail to understand that.
